A tough road ahead The Land Conservancy, faced with a huge debt, looks at ‘bold and innovative’ ways to fix problem

Daniel Palmer Reporting Supporters of The Land Conservancy are holding their breath to see how the B.C. nonprofit will weather the worst financial crisis it has faced in its 15-year history. TLC, which owns and manages 300 protected properties worth $32 million across the province – including Sooke Potholes and Madrona Farm in Saanich – is currently undergoing massive restructuring after its bank accounts were temporarily frozen by Canada Revenue Agency last month for unpaid taxes. The federal agency has since released TLC’s accounts, allowing staff to be paid and freeing up $23,000 for an immediate tax payment. It now faces the difficult task of rebuilding trust with its 8,000 members while trying to woo

more, and must navigate its way through a short-term debt repayment plan with minimal revenue options. “We have faced difficult financial situations before, but the current economic situation demands we take an innovative and bold look at the way we do everything,” said Al Craighead, TLC board chair, and Kathleen Sheppard, acting executive director, in a joint statement. Sheppard took over when founder Bill Turner retired in June. The organization’s financial problems were apparent as far back as 2009, when internal disagreements boiled into the public sphere. Internal critics at the time said Turner had been too focused on acquiring properties without due concern for stretching TLC finances too thin. Proponents of Turner cited the necessity to respond quickly to new opportunities, while Craighead and Sheppard said TLC’s acquisitions have saved “properties of natural, cultural and agricultural significance when others said it was impossible.” PLEASE SEE: TLC hopes, Page A12

ALS walk helps family heal Fundraising event supports ALS patients in region Brittany Lee

Security, admin staff walk off the job

News staff

F

or Shanna Juszko, the hardest part about losing her mother is not being able to hear her voice. “I used to talk to her three times a day,â€? Juszko says. Juszko’s mother, Dianna Goffin, passed away from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS, in July after a short, seven-month battle with the disease. “For me, it’s (remembering her) every day. I wake up in the morning and think, ‘Oh, I haven’t talked to mum in a while, I should call her.’ “Then I realize‌â€? she says, her voice softening as her eyes well up. ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a fatal neuromuscular disease. It attacks the body’s nerves, used to send messages from the brain to the muscle. Ultimately, those diagnosed with ALS lose all mobility, including the ability to speak, swallow and breathe. However, the brain often remains healthy and alert. The average life expectancy for people diagnosed with ALS is three to five years. Born in Comox, Dianna spent most of her life in Campbell River and lived in Courtenay for the last six years. The active 64-year-old loved hockey, golfing and knitting. But most of all, she loved her family. “She just loved life, and travelling, and spending time with family and friends,â€? her daughter says. After retiring, Dianna spent the next 11 years travelling throughout B.C., the Yukon, Alberta, and the western United States with her husband, Bob Goffin. The couple of almost 45 years spent winters down south. But this past winter, their trip was cut short. After leaving their Courtney home last October, Dianna knew something was wrong.

Bob Goffin, left, Kevin Juszko, 8, Shanna Juszko, Murray Juszko and Megan Juszko, 10, stand outside of their Saanich home in the team shirts they will be wearing during Sunday’s (Sept. 16) Victoria Walk for ALS. The family recently lost Dianna Goffin to the disease, and has gathered a group of almost 30 family members and friends to participate in this weekend’s walk. “Her muscles were twitching and she just generally didn’t feel all that great,� Juszko recalls. By the end of November, the Goffins returned to Saanich, convinced by their daughter to stay with her. Dianna was diagnosed with ALS on Dec. 5, 2011. “She was angry,� Juszko says. “She was really angry. And for the first little while (asked), ‘Why me? Why did this happen to me?’� In January, her health took a downturn. During a family outing, Dianna experienced a foot drop, a common sign of ALS where the muscles in the foot become too weak to lift the leg. She learned to let go of the anger, and Dianna started enjoying the time she had left with her family. The Goffins even hosted a family barbecue, with about 25 guests, at their home the night before Dianna passed. “We didn’t realize it was going to be that fast,� Juszko says. “She actually came out-

side and sat with everybody for the barbecue.� That next day, on July 10, Dianna’s breathing got worse. And within 45 minutes she passed away with her family by her side. “She decided she wanted to go gracefully, with as much dignity as possible. She fought it right till the end.� Juszko, her father, and almost 30 family members and friends will be participating in the Victoria Walk for ALS on Sunday, in memory of Dianna. It’s their first year walking to help raise funds for the ALS Society of B.C. – which goes towards equipment and support for families affected by ALS, as well as

research to finding a cure. Besides supporting the Goffin family, the society also provided Dianna with much needed equipment and care, which costs an average $137,000 per patient. The Victoria Walk for ALS takes place Sunday, Sept. 16, 12:30 p.m. in Lot 6 at the University of Victoria. The walk around Ring Road starts at 1 p.m. Last year’s event raised $28,000. This year, organizers aim to raise $35,000. To register for this year’s walk, see walkforals.ca. For more information, email victoriawalk@alsbc.ca. editor@vicnews.com

Grim facts of ALS â– About 3,000 Canadians currently live with ALS and each day, two to three Canadians die from the disease. â– There is no known cause of ALS, nor is there a cure. ALS always results in death, with 90 per cent of those dying within five years.

Picketing ramped up at the University of Victoria this week, as striking CUPE workers walked the line both Tuesday and Wednesday. On the first day of picketing, campus security workers with CUPE 917 set up strikes around the campus security building. On Wednesday, staff picketed at multiple UVic buildings throughout the day, including at the Administrative Services Building, the Saunders Annex and a continuation of the strike at the campus security building. Workers from both 917 and CUPE 951 took part. “We see it as sort of upping the ante a little bit. It’s starting to have a direct cost to the employer,� said Rob Park, president of CUPE 917. This week’s job action hit departments linked with accounting, pensions, purchasing, printing and distribution services. “We, again, are trying to move things along without impacting the students,� Park said. “We’re starting to run out of alternatives, but we’re still using the ones we’ve got.� Doug Sprenger, president of CUPE 951 told the News last week the unions don’t intend to directly impact students until Sept. 17, unless the two parties return to the bargaining table. While that deadline is nearing, Bruce Kilpatrick, director of communications for UVic, says discussions are underway to get back to business. “The doors have always been open. We want to get back to the table, we went to be talking about the issues because that’s the only way we’re going to get a settlement,� Kilpatrick said. “We’re both ready to return (to the bargaining table). Now we’re just working out the details of what days and the particulars we’ll be discussing.� The two unions represent 1,500 nonteaching jobs such as tradespeople, food service staff, childcare workers, and office and library staff, and have both been without contracts since March 31, 2010. At issue for the unions is job security and inflation protection. kslavin@saanichnews.com

The United Way of Greater Victoria hopes to raise $6 million in the next year to provide financial support to nearly 70 social programs throughout the region. “This community is incredibly generous and we have high hopes that we will exceed the goal,” said campaign chair John Guthrie at Wednesday’s unveiling at Ogden Point. From transitional housing to anti-bullying initiatives in schools to drug rehabilitation, the United Way works with community partners to identify the most pressing community issues. Registered charities can apply for grants for specific projects that help address those issues, and a panel of community experts selects eligible partners and monitors the funds. Recipients of United Way funding include AIDS Vancouver Island, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Victoria, Pacifica Housing Advisory Association, Victoria Cool Aid Society and the Conservatory of Music. The campaign raised $5.9 million in 2011 with the help of over 1,000 volunteers in 500 workplaces and individual community donors.

Sharon Tiffin/News staff

United Way volunteers were out in force Monday inviting residents to the organization’s kickoff breakfast on Wednesday at Ogden Point. In the past year, United Way funding helped deliver 117 programs and services to the community’s most vulnerable people through 68 partners. Guthrie said funding requests exceeded available resources by nearly two to one last year. “The need is great, we know that,” he said. “Many of our community partners aren’t able to provide some important programs for people to get the help when they need it." dpalmer@vicnews.com

Cancer scammer arrested by VicPD Victoria police arrested a man from Calgary who was wanted in Alberta for hosting an event to raise money for his cancer treatments, an illness police say he doesn’t have. Calgary police charged Kristopher Nicholas Cook, 28, with one count of fraud over $5,000 after raising approximately $7,500 from guests at a July fundraiser. Guests subsequently became skeptical of Cook’s story that he had cancer.

Candidates seek party nod for byelection NDP, Liberals first to have declared candidates Daniel Palmer News staff

Three potential candidates have emerged in the race for nomination in the upcoming Victoria federal byelection, while the four major parties work to finalize their nomination processes. Murray Rankin, an environmental lawyer and former University of Victoria law professor, declared his intent to seek the NDP candidacy on Monday. Rankin previously chaired the Land Conservancy of B.C. and is currently heading a panel of legal experts who are advising the provincial NDP on their opposition to the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline project. “I’m just appalled that (the pipeline is) a serious possibility,� Rankin said, adding he is concerned by the weakening of Canada’s environmental regulations. “I sincerely fear the dismantling of all things I’ve come to love as a Canadian,� he said. Last week, economist Paul Summerville announced his intention to seek the federal Liberal nomination. Previously chief economist for RBC, Summerville ran for the NDP in Ontario in the 2006 federal election, but said the Liberals are better aligned with his economic and fiscal beliefs. “Wealth is a critical condition for a successful social democracy,� he said. “That’s a hard thing to say wearing an NDP hat.� Rankin said the Capital Region’s secondary sewage treatment project is a done deal under federal and provincial regulations, while Summerville said there is still a conversation to be had about the “top-down� decision. “It was done in a way that was ignorant of the science,� Summerville said. On Thursday, UVic law professor and refugee rights advocate Donald Galloway announced his intention to seek the Green Party nomination. Prominent pro-NDP Victoria councillor Marianne Alto also confirmed she will not be seeking the federal seat. “Right now, my priorities are my city and my family,� Alto said in a statement, adding her still has unfinished business in the Capital Region. No potential candidates had emerged for the Conservatives by The News deadline.

‡ ‡

Local riding associations for the NDP, Conservatives, Liberals and Greens are finalizing their formal processes for selecting respective candidates. A byelection is necessary because Victoria MP Denise Savoie resigned her seat due to health reasons on Aug. 31. The byelection date has not yet been set by the federal government, but it is expected to take place in conjunction with two others in Calgary Centre and Durham, Ont. near the end of November. dpalmer@vicnews.com

NDP set date â– Federal NDP members will choose a candidate on Oct. 14 for the upcoming Victoria byelection. The nomination meeting will be held at the Michele Pujol Room at the University of Victoria at 1 p.m. Only NDP members within the Victoria federal riding are eligible to vote. Nomination papers must be submitted by 5 p.m. on Sept. 28 for candidate hopefuls to be on the ballot.

Water garden helps park grow Innovative system preserves water in new city park

“Any toxins like lead, copper or zinc will get absorbed by the plants in the rain garden, and will help keep the Inner Harbour cleaner for all of us.” – Roy Brooke

Daniel Palmer News staff

Victoria’s city planners are unveiling an innovative way to deal with anticipated wetter winters and drier summers in the coming years. A new park at Fisherman’s Wharf, expected to open Oct. 2, features a rain garden – a streamlike gully full of shrubs that captures rainwater runoff from the surrounding area and cleans it before draining to the nearby ocean. “This rain garden allows nature to do its job,” said Roy Brooke, Victoria’s director of sustainability. “Any toxins like lead, copper or zinc will get absorbed by the plants in the rain garden, and will help keep the Inner Harbour cleaner for all of us.” The new park includes sitting areas, green space and a walking

“The cement wall (surrounding the rain garden) actually represents the footprint of the old harbour as well,” DeMarzo said of the $650,000 renovation that began in April.

Rain gardens already exist in several public and private areas of the city including Trent Street, Oswald Park and The Atrium. But Fisherman’s Wharf park’s 352-square-metre garden is the

largest to date, collecting grey water from more than 14,000 square metres in the surrounding area. “We’ll definitely be seeing more,” Brooke said, adding the city is planning to create a storm water utility in 2014 that will provide incentives to developers to include rain gardens in their plans. While residents initially called for a running stream in the park, engineers determined it was not worth disturbing the contaminated soil at a deeper depth, DeMarzo said. Howard Markson, a nearby St. Lawrence Street resident, said the park renovation is a deluxe improvement on the previous field. “It’s got an environmental payoff, too,” Markson said. “I think it’s beautiful. I love it.” The grand opening will take place Oct. 2 from 11 a.m. to noon. dpalmer@vicnews.com

Speeding vehicles along Old Esquimalt Road are nothing new, but Esquimalt council appears to finally be nearing a decision on how to tackle the persistent issue. Council budgeted $70,000 to install traffic-calming measures earlier this year, but public works has not yet been approved by council to take action. Some of the proposed options include speed readers, rumble strips and speed tables, which are elongated speed bumps. At Monday’s council meeting, resident Tony Cond urged the township to take action with the installation of portable speed tables, something he claimed costs only $2,000 per table and does not damage the street’s heritage value. “I’m of the mind to go back to speed tables, we’ve tried everything else,” Coun. Meagan Brame told staff. “We need to move forward,” said Coun. Lynda Hundleby, who suggested staff provide further information on the portable speed tables so that council can make a decision in the coming weeks. Brame said the traffic calming measures, once approved, should be installed late this year or in early-2013. Mayor Barb Desjardins and Coun. David Schinbein were ill on Monday, and Coun. Dave Hodgins was in Ottawa at a Federation of Canadian Municipalities conference. dpalmer@vicnews.com

Jack Lohman, the museum’s new chief executive officer, has a passionate interest in breathing life back into the many forgotten collections in the B.C. Archives. He will be meeting with Library and Archives Canada later this year, urging them to get more documents and artifacts on the UNESCO world heritage list, including several treaties between Sir

James Douglas and First Nations that currently sit in the museum’s archives. “Canada only has three (UNESCO world heritage documents),” he said. “As the second-largest country in the world, what does that say to the world?” Lohman hopes the renewed focus on B.C. will create a modern museum. “I think that will be the significance, the focus on collections and archives,” he said. “There won’t be a Titanic exhibit.” The museum will also begin offering admission at 50 per cent off on weekday afternoons starting in mid-October, Lohman added. The goal is to attract “everybody” to the museum, regardless of interest or age, Willis said. “Our program for the year ahead is nothing if not eclectic,” he said. There are also dozens of features presentations planned. For a complete list of the upcoming 2012-2013 program, visit royalbcmuseum.bc.ca. dpalmer@vicnews.com

UVic scientists to help monitor Arctic sea ice Edward Hill

Moran, an expert in Arctic environments, said the permanent loss of sea ice could have profound impacts on global weather systems, such as shifting stable pockets of cold air from the Arctic to more southern latitudes. “We need more measurements in the

News staff

The extent of Arctic sea ice is hitting record lows, making now as good a time as any to add more gear to monitor the ocean environment in the far North. The University of Victoria’s Ocean Networks Canada consortium plans to install a underwater sea floor observatory in Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, this month. The technology is similar to the group’s Neptune and Venus underwater observatories off the east and west coasts of Vancouver Island, although much smaller. The Cambridge Bay observatory will hold devices measuring water salinity, temperature, pressure, a highresolution camera, and critically, an acoustic device that detects the thickness of ice. An onshore weather station will be linked to the system. This collection of devices will be housed on a frame at the bottom of the bay at Cambridge Bay, linked to the shore via a fibre optic cable armoured for cold temperatures. Ideally, and similar to the Neptune and Venus networks, this mini-observatory will stream live data to the world through the Internet, if the installation team can plug into an Internet connection. “It’s a challenge,” admits Kate Moran, director of Ocean Networks Canada. “There’s not great communications there. We are working with the Nunavut government to hook into their Internet system.” Cambridge Bay is slated as the home of the Canadian High Arctic Research Station, announced by the federal government in 2007, but the project has yet to break ground. Installing the mini-observatory will introduce residents to the kind of science involved in the Arctic, and will allow a number to become trained in installation maintenance of the devices. “There’s been announcements about the Canadian High Arctic Research Station, but nothing is in place. This will help the community learn about

Arctic for better predictions of weather patterns and long term loss of sea ice,” she said. “The significance of having continuous monitoring of the Arctic Ocean cannot be overstated.” The UVic observatory will feed data to the U.S. National Snow and Ice Data Centre, which closely monitors Arctic sea ice levels. The project also

aims to connect the school in Cambridge Bay with Brentwood College in Brentwood Bay, which also hosts a UVic ocean observatory. “It’s a neat educational tool (where) students in both environments can talk about what they are learning,” Moran said. editor@saanichnews.com OUR VIEW Page A10

Housekeeping for Homeowners. Like most British Columbians, your home is likely your most precious investment, but keeping it protected with simple home maintenance often falls behind a busy lifestyle and other priorities. Yet basic home maintenance does not require a lot of specialized skills or know-how, is very cost effective and an excellent approach to protection against an unexpected crisis and costs. Here we share some important tips to keep your home and family safe. t Prevent the possibility of a fire hazard by keeping the dryer vent clean. Clean the lint filter every time you run your dryer and once a year slide the vent out and remove any lint build up. t Run an energy efficient furnace by replacing filters at least every three months, especially for proper operation over winter. Dirty filters block airflow, lowering air quality and making it potentially dangerous to your family’s health. They also cause furnaces to work overtime, increasing energy bills and eventually to overheat, burn out and be replaced. t Prevent mold by monitoring your home for condensation. Too much moisture indoors eventually poses a health risk, and left untreated will rot woodwork. Examine your windows, checking for cracks or breaks in the seals that can easily be fixed.

t Guard against water damage by looking for signs of dripping and corrosion on exposed pipes around toilets, sinks and appliances. Leaking fixtures can often be fixed with simple replacement parts like O-rings, cartridges or flappers for leaky toilets. Leaks are easy to miss, but early repair avoids costly water damage. t Make sure your gutters are clean and water run-off is unobstructed. At least once a year physically remove debris and build-up from your gutters and ensure your downpipes are clear. Blocked gutters and pipes can force water to back up and soak into the roof, walls, and even the foundation. Basic upkeep of your home protects your investment and safeguards your family. And it’s easy enough to do yourself with an idea of what to look for and why.

OUR VIEW

Walking on thin ice The Canadian government has routinely been criticized for not being aggressive enough in curbing greenhouse gas emissions. Now a University of Victoria report shows Arctic permafrost is thawing and billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide, previously unaccounted for, is being released into the atmosphere, helping raise global temperatures. This news comes on the heels of a report from the National Snow and Ice Data Centre which found that the Arctic sea ice cover melted to its lowest since 1979 last month. What these two things have in common is that they are both caused by global warming – along with natural weather patterns – and both increase global warming. The warming trend in turn creates strange and devastating weather patterns including tornadoes in Brooklyn, droughts in Texas and flooding everywhere from Pakistan to Montreal. These severe weather events cause billions of dollars in damage, not to mention hundreds of thousands of deaths each year. In 2011, the cost of weather disasters worldwide was an estimated $150 billion. Scientists are now reporting that severe weather events that usually occur every 50 to 100 years are appearing in shorter cycles. Our warmer atmosphere creates heat waves, more water evaporation from the oceans adds up to heavier rainfall, rising winds occur and atmospheric chaos ensues. These dramatic weather events are another indication that global warming is real and all levels of government need to take it seriously. The federal Liberal government that agreed to the Kyoto Protocol to restrict greenhouse gas emissions, lacked the enthusiasm to meet its targets and since the Conservative takeover, the level of apathy has risen to new heights. The Harper government decided it would never meet the targets so why try? Perhaps the steady erosion of Canada’s Arctic is reason enough. As the ice and permafrost melt, and the water rises, Canada will no longer have to worry about Arctic sovereignty as there will be no Arctic land mass left to protect.

Canada’s Arctic sovereignty may be threatened

Let’s not forget Conrad Black and his inflated ego and wallet. For us, who pay their wages, the anger doesn’t come because we want to get all those goodies for ourselves, but it’s the incredible sense of entitlement from these stuffed shirts (male and female). What makes people angry is that our taxes keep going up and our quality of life keeps going down, not even keeping up with the rate of inflation. Those who milk the system should be exposed and no public entity should hire them if they are caught with their hands in the public purse. But they do go on and land new jobs and double dip if they can. Their sense of entitlement remains. They have lost touch with what it is like for the average working stiff. They are above it all. This is exactly why countries like Greece, Italy and Spain are faltering and failing economically. Their civil service is bloated and it is exploding. Civil servants there believe they have a right to a job for life once they get into the employ of the government. The scary thing is it could easily happen here.

LETTERS After 44 years here, deer are the intruders Please, whoever is in a position to do it – please relieve us of the four-legged pests that are causing so much pain to the region’s gardeners and farmers. When we moved into our Saanich home 44 years ago, we were in a semi-rural area with horse pastures and greenhouses all around. There were no deer. We prepared an area for a vegetable garden and were successful in raising delicious produce. For nearly forty years we were free of deer. One morning this week there were four of them in our yard, munching on the new growth on the raspberry canes. And note that our neighbourhood is no longer rural. To those who would argue that the deer were here first I boldly proclaim that they were not here for the first 40 years of our residency. They are intruders. Please, do something to get rid of them. Robert McCue Saanich

Columnist wades deep into manure Re: Separating oil from manure (B.C. Views, Sept. 5) Thanks Tom Fletcher for another well-researched column about oil and manure. Surely, the merits of the refinery talk have advanced the debate over the Enbridge pipeline. In one simple way, the debate continues to advance deeper into the manure. Your global studies from nearly a decade ago, Andrew Weaver’s omniscient greenhouse gas theory regarding coal versus oil, and your CERA report on where fossil fuel emissions come from all fail to address the one truth that you mistakenly added to your article: “It’s not tankers and pipelines doing most of the polluting, it’s you and me.” Indeed, you and I are doing the polluting. The serious debaters here know this and that is the main point of contention. Since all of us seem unable to curtail our wasteful and stupendous exploitation of archaic energy sources then why continue to facilitate them? We dictate regulatory controls over “hard” drug use and many other social ills, and now some of us are wanting to put ourselves in rehab. It seems promoters such as yourself want to literally pipeline this product to new, larger and currently less-

addicted part of the globe. I have little doubt that you will succeed; I have a lot of hope that you won’t. Ryan Gisler Victoria

Privatization should lower liquor costs Re: Rationale still unclear for liquor privatization (Letters, Sept. 7) While working as a consultant on an engagement with the B.C. Liquor Distribution Branch in 1991, I had discussions about privatization with the BCLDB’s executive director. I was commissioned to investigate ways for the BCLDB to become more efficient in their role in the supply chain from importation to delivery of liquor to bars and retail outlets in the province. What became apparent immediately was that the government-run facility was adding little to no value while operating less efficiently and at a higher cost than private companies that specialize in warehousing and distribution. The hefty income that liquor sales provides to B.C. coffers, referred to by letter-writer Pat McGuire, comes from taxation, and it would continue to be payable to the province after privatization. The operational savings from lower warehousing and distribution costs after privatization would, in theory, be passed on to consumers. I was advised at the time that the idea of privatization was a non-starter due to the complications of dealing with a unionized workforce. If the government has finally found the political will to privatize liquor distribution while retaining its role as policy setter and tax collector, then we should expect improved service levels and lower costs from a supply chain managed by professionals. Robert Waters Victoria

Political raises should have more oversight To quote Premier Christy Clark: “I am not going back to taxpayers for more money in order to give government workers a raise. We are in very tough economic times and we have to balance our budget.” The sanctimonious tone of the Premier’s statement is mind-boggling. If she is so concerned about going back to taxpayers for a pay raise for government workers, why doesn’t she express those same sentiments when the politicians vote themselves a substantial wage

increase whenever they like? They don’t even have to justify it to anyone, least of all the taxpayers, who are paying for them. Have they ever voted to not to give themselves a raise? That would make a dent in helping to balance the budget. They should be ashamed that they continue to vote themselves raises, regardless of tough economic times, while denying others. But, unfortunately, I don’t think they are capable of feeling shame. The practice of voting themselves raises needs to be abolished. They are civil servants and should not have this power, with no oversight or justification. This is a practice that is long overdue for change. Why isn’t someone calling for this to be done, if only in the name of fairness, if nothing else? Just last week I read about the Legislative Clerk (supposedly a consultant) in their employ and no one could say exactly what his job was. Where was his job description? But no, they admit to paying (or I should say taxpayers are paying) him salary and perks, completely unaware of his function. Is it any wonder people have become thoroughly disillusioned with politics, and are failing to vote. The only reason I still vote is that I honour the women who fought so hard to get the vote, but I do it with a heavy heart because I see that greed and hypocrisy thrive in the world of politics.

TLC hopes to develop sustainability plan Continued from Page A1

Board member Briony Penn said in a letter to members that TLC’s board of directors is working

on a sustainability plan that is expected to be revealed at the non-profit’s annual general meeting Nov. 3. Immediate measures

include a reduction of staff from 60 to 12, moving to donated office space and paying down capped short-term debt, while long-term

initiatives will build on core membership to generate steady revenue, and look at alternative management options for its properties.

Our knowledgeable staff will be here to answer your questions, assess your needs and help you to find the mobility device that perfectly fits you and your lifestyle.

An action plan will be finalized over the next year and presented at the 2013 annual meeting, Craighead and Sheppard said. TLC’s own bylaws, standards of practices and charity legislation prevent it from selling its conservation properties to generate revenue, although in a worst case scenario, properties could be transferred to other charitable

organizations with a similar mandate, Penn said. TLC is expecting two significant government grants before the end of the calendar year as well, she said. Across the province, TLC is involved with 300 projects totalling about 48,500 hectares. Created in 1997, TLC is a non-profit charitable land trust that works throughout the province protecting habitat for

plants, animals and natural communities as well as properties with historical, cultural, scientific or recreational values. – with files from Nanaimo News Bulletin

B.C. Greens eye 2013 election The Green Party of B.C. has nominated its first candidate for next year’s provincial election. Susan Low, a small business owner and Esquimalt resident, will represent the provincial Greens in EsquimaltRoyal Roads. Low has worked with small business, government and non-profit organizations in the areas of strategic planning and business development for 17 years and holds a master’s degree in entrepreneurship from the University of Calgary, according to a release. “As a business person and a mom,

I believe the Green Party has the best policies for building a better future, while looking after the practical needs of today,” Low said in a statement. The seat is currently held by the NDP’s Maurine Karagianis, who beat out, among others, B.C. Green Party leader Jane Sterk in the 2009 provincial election with 53 per cent support. Sterk received 17 per cent of the vote in that election. Low was born and raised in Saanich and lives with her husband, Artos, and their five-year-old son, Simon, near the Gorge Waterway.

Car, marijuana seized from home Kyle Slavin News staff

A 2013 Ford Mustang GT and a pound of marijuana were seized by Victoria police from a home in the 400-block of Catherine St. last week. A drug search warrant was executed on the home around 7:30 p.m. last Friday in relation to an ongoing investigation. Police seized the marijuana and a small amount of hash from inside the residence. The Mustang was also seized, and police are

pursuing options for forfeiture of the vehicle. “This seizure should send a strong message to those who profit from crime that VicPD will exhaust every law and means to make them pay,” said Const. Bob Isles. “In this case the accused was obviously quite profitable selling drugs, and that unfortunately comes at a cost to someone else.” A 50-year-old Victoria man was arrested at the home. He faces charges of possession for the purpose of trafficking. kslavin@saanichnews.com

Saanich history tour highlights the Gorge Natalie North News staff

The Gorge was once Victoria’s playground, a place where folks would converge to take in the regattas and vaudeville shows, to swim for the day or dance the night away. From 1890 to 1930 it was a social hub of the city. Those days are long gone. This year is a landmark year for Victoria and Esquimalt, with each celebrating their 150th and 100th anniversaries, respectively. It’s been six years since Saanich celebrated its centennial anniversary. The Gorge, the common border between the municipalities, has been the focus of a push from local community groups to get locals back out there swimming in the waterway again. It has also been the focus of one historian’s research for the last 20 years. “The Gorge’s history is probably the most colourful you’ll find anywhere in Victoria,” said Dennis Minaker, author and resident of the Gorge-Tillicum neighbourhood. “It’s quite remarkable, actually.” That colourful history spans from the early farmlands of the Craigflower area and all along the inlet, where the Royal Navy regularly hosted regatta events. “It became the centre for outdoor recreation, and that included swimming, boating, picnicking, camping – and the centre for some of the grandest houses ever built in Victoria,” Minaker added. Those houses, built along Gorge shorelines in all three municipalities in the latter part of the 19th century, have all but disappeared, as did the amusement

Devour Bistro & Catering Vancity business member Fresh food tastes better. And locally grown fresh food—that tastes best of all. That’s a good way to describe the business model of Devour Food, one of Greater Victoria’s most exciting new restaurants: keep the menu very fresh, very local, and very tasty, and customers will beat a path to your door. Vancity was a big fan of the restaurant’s innovative concept: to focus on in-season ingredients sourced from organic producers in and around the Greater Victoria community. After meeting owner and head chef Jena Stewart, Vancity came to the table with a small-

business start-up loan and financing package that included a term loan and operating line of credit. The financing allowed Devour Food to renovate and update its location in the downtown core at 762 Broughton Street, as well as purchase new equipment and other supplies for its kitchen. Vancity also provided ongoing business and entrepreneur support, which gave Devour Food an important leg up in the city’s hyper-competitive restaurant industry. Since it opened its doors, Devour Food has received rave reviews

and numerous awards. Beyond the accolades, the restaurant has served the community well, highlighting the importance of the local food economy to hundreds of restaurant patrons every day. It has also helped profile several Vancouver Island food producers, giving them a forum for showcasing their delicious products to local residents. Vancity shares Devour Food’s commitment to supporting local businesses, and its support for local farmers and food producers. We continue to invest in the people and businesses who produce, deliver and serve locally grown organic food.

You already get value from buying local. Why not bank that way? vancity.com/victoria Make Good Money (TM) and Good Money (TM) are trademarks of Vancouver City Savings Credit Union.

When you make deposits with Vancity, you earn competitive returns that help you reach your financial goals. We then lend to businesses and organizations that create social, economic and environmental impact. That investment comes back to all of us in the form of a stronger economy, a healthier population, and a vibrant, more prosperous community.

The City of Victoria has hired a new face to oversee the $92.8-million Johnson Street Bridge replacement project. Ken Jarvela, an engineer with bridge construction experience, will assume the role of project manager, a position made vacant when Mike Lai resigned in July to rejoin the District of Saanich as manager of transportation. “This is an important and exciting transportation project,” Jarvela said in a statement. “I am looking forward to joining the project team and to be a part of building a new bridge for Victoria.” Jarvela most recently oversaw construction of the $160-million Blue Water Bridge, which spans the St. Clair river between Point Edward, Ont., and Port Huron, Mich. Victoria’s manager of operations, Peter Sparanese, and director of engineering, Dwayne Kalynchuk, had stepped in temporarily to fill the project manager role while a candidate was sought. The city has extended its request for proposal stage until Oct. 18, when it will award the construction contract to one of three interested bidders: PCL Constructors Westcoast Inc., Peter Kiewit Infrastructure Co. (Kiewit) and WCC Construction Canada, ULC (Walsh).

Spin-a-thon to help out Tour de Rock Esquimalt township staff will pedal for dollars on Wednesday (Sept. 19) at Esquimalt Plaza in support of Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock. The eighth annual Cops for Cancer Spina-thon will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., where staff will ride as many kilometres as possible. The event is presented by Esquimalt parks and recreation.

Latin film week shows unique perspective UVic-led event showcases best in Latin American and Spanish cinema Kyle Wells News staff

Cinecenta is going south of the border for the Third Latin American and Spanish Film Week, from Sept. 18 to 23. The event is organized by the department of Hispanic and Italian studies at the University of Victoria and showcases some of the best in Latin American cinema. “The idea essentially is to showcase different cultures and societies of Latin America and Spain,” UVic professor Dan Russek said. “All these countries have thriving cultures. … So we’re interested in bringing these movies to Victoria that otherwise might not reach the community.” Every night of the event features a film from a different country. O Palhaço (The Clown) is a 2011 film from Brazilian director Selton Mello, who also stars in the film. Described as a lighthearted and

nostalgic tale, the film follows a father/son travelling clown act. The son, Benjamin, begins to question if he is funny and sets out on a journey of self-discovery. Gatos viejos (Old Cats) is a 2010 Chilean film by directors Sebastián Silva and Pedro Peirano. The dramatic film explores family relations, the generation gap and misplaced expectations through its story of an aging couple living in simplicity when their daughter and her lesbian lover come to visit with a get-rich scheme. On the Thursday night is Trisha Ziff’s La Maleta Mexicana (The Mexican Suitcase), a documentary about the recovery in 2007 of 4,500 photograph negatives taken during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). Stephanie Boyd’s Operación Diablo (The Devil Operation) is screening on the Friday night. This documentary focuses on Father Marco Arana, a priest in Peru who spent two decades defending mountain farmers from a U.S.-owned gold mine. Proceeds from this screening will go to Mosqoy, a Canadian charity, founded by a former UVic student, promoting social justice

Juan de los muertos (Juan of the Dead) is a Cuban zombie movie with a political twist. The film is being screened at Cinecenta as part of the Third Latin American and Spanish Film Week. and cultural rights in the Peruvian Andes. Cuban film Juan de los Muertos (Juan of the Dead) is director Alejandro Brugués’ comedic, actionpacked take on the zombie genre, with a political twist. Citizens are

violently attacking one another in Cuba. The government says dissidents paid by the U.S. government are to blame, but Juan, a 40-yearold Havana man, sets out to find the truth. The week finishes off with the

Sunday night screening of Un Cuento Chino (A Chinese Tale) by Argentinian director Sebastián Borensztein. Starring Ricardo Darín (The Secret in Their Eyes), this film centres on a hardware store owner who helps a young man from China search for his uncle. It can be hard to describe, but Russek said that Latin American movies have a certain flavour to them that distinguishes them from other international cinema. “Some bittersweetness about life, I would say,” Russek said. “Life can be hard in Latin America. The social problems, the drug trafficking, inequality. … And that … sinks into their work without being didactic or pedagogical.” Even the comedies typically have something to say about social issues or the Latin American experience, Russek said. “They’re not shallow comedies. … There’s some bite, some darkness.” Show times for all films are 7 and 9 p.m. All screenings are at Cinecenta (3800 Finnerty Rd.). All films will be screened with English subtitles. kwells@goldstreamgazette.com

Remembering Rosie, a tribute to the life and career of Rosemary Clooney, hits the stage this weekend at the Charlie White Theatre in Sidney. Performers Patri- Patricia Duval, left, cia Duval and Lorraine and Lorraine Foster. Foster from Vancouver, accompanied by the Peter Dent Quartet, tell Clooney’s life story and career through songs and dialogue. The show features some of Clooney’s early hits from the 1950s, some pieces from her big-band years and her lounge act with 4 Girls 4. It finishes with a look at her 25 years recording with the Concord Jazz label. “This show takes you on a delightful trip down memory lane which showcases Rosemary’s incredible talent and experiences,” said Duval, who’s been close friends with Foster for 35 years. Both women have been actors for many years and always hoped to do a show together. Remembering Rosie plays Sunday (Sept. 16) at 2 p.m. Tickets, $30 and $25 for seniors and students, are available through the Mary Winspear box office, at marywinspear.ca or at 250-656-0275. reporter@peninsulanewsreview.com

Canada at the past two under-20 Junior World Cup Trophy tournaments, a product of the St. Michaels University School rugby program. “ARC selection is something everyone involved here is hoping for,” said Fuailefau, who trains daily with a senior national team’s long list. “Fuailefau will be in and among some pretty good company, and if he excels within that group it’ll be a positive indicator for him.” MacMillan said. Fuailefau’s first taste of the CRC came as a winger against the Atlantic Rock in August, in which he played a steady 80 minutes. Against Ontario, Fuailefau will start as a centre. It’s his ideal position, where he’s played for Canada U20, the UVic Vikes premier men and will likely suit up for the Castaway Wanderers this year.

Rugby’s proving grounds National rugby centre hosts provincial test this weekend Travis Paterson News staff

Rugby has come a long way in Langford. City Centre Park was once but a twinkle in Mayor Stew Young’s eyes. Now it’s the home of the Canadian Rugby Centre for Excellence, an incubator developing the country’s top players. The progression continues tomorrow (Sept. 15) as City Centre Park’s main field, Westhills Stadium, hosts the Pacific Tyee against the Ontario Blues. It’s the Tyee’s final match of the Canadian Rugby Championship, the annual regional contest between the Tyee (Team B.C.), Blues, Prairie WolfPack and Atlantic Rock. And it’s happening on the same grounds where the international America’s Rugby Championship will take place between Canada, Argentina, U.S.A. and Uruguay, Oct. 12 to 20. “(The Tyee) have been at it for three months now and we’ve tried to put together an inclusive program for the players and various coaches who’ve helped out,” said Tyee head coach John MacMillan. A core of Oak Bay High graduates lead the Tyee:

Assuming White recovers in time for the ARC, he and Mack (UVic Vikes) will be unavailable, as they’ll be in Australia with Canada’s national sevens team. The same goes for UVic Vikes Nathan Hirayama and Sean Duke. Despite many national team players in the Tyee’s backfield, it hasn’t been the rosiest of CRC competitions. The Tyee have just one win in four matches. Wouldn’t you know, the only win was against Ontario on Sept. 1. “Outside of the results on the field, it’s been a satisfactory result all around,” MacMillan said. “The win against Ontario means a lot for our old rivalry with Ontario.” Moreover, Saturday is the final opportunity for players to catch the attention of the ARC selectors, national team head coach Kieran Crowley in particular. It’s why the CRC was developed in the first place, to give the country’s top 100-plus elite a chance to face each other on a regular basis. Professionals, of which Canada

Xterra Victoria is the latest addition to the Victoria triathlon scene. And it comes with an Olympic endorsement. London Games triathlete Brent McMahon will compete in the first ever Xterra Victoria race, Sunday morning (Sept. 16) at Durrance Lake. It’s taken race director Monique Moore and company two years to bring the off-road version of triathlon to fruition in Greater Victoria. “It will be about 60 racers this weekend and we’re very excited to start off small,” Moore said. “We want to get people comfortable with the idea, as this is the first off-road triathlon in the welldeveloped triathlon community of Victoria.” Despite never hosting a race before, Greater Victoria is known throughout the Xterra and triathlon communities as the home of Melanie McQuaid, three time Xterra world champion. McQuaid will be unavailable to compete this weekend, however. The race begins with a 500-metre lap swim in Durrance Lake, which transitions to a 14-kilometre cross-country mountain bike course through the Mount Work/Hartland trail system, and ends with a four-km run through the Partridge Hills. Unlike the standard distances

Extreme terra ■ Race distances vary on the Xterra triathlon circuit. ■ The most famous Xterra race is Xterra Maui, the Xterra world championship, a 1.5km rough-water swim, 29.5km mountain bike and a 9.8km trail run. ■ Xterra Victoria hopes to increase its size from this year’s 500-metre swim, 14km mountain bike, and 4km run.

of road triathlons, there are no set distances for Xterra races, which vary depending on the geography of the off-road trails. Moore, a Victoria resident originally from Calgary, is a 10-time Ironman veteran and has competed at world triathlon championships in the Olympic triathlon distance. But she’s never done an Xterra, yet. “I will definitely be doing one soon, but I was even more excited to bring one to Victoria.” She met with Xterra Canada president Cal Zaryski, of Calgary, and the conversation immediately turned to the need to put an Xterra race on the South Island, the heart of triathlon country. “This is an area that has world-class mountain biking, top Canadian triathletes and athletes otherwise, and we connected around that,” Moore said. B.C. already hosts three other Xterra races in Whistler, Kelowna and Vernon. The series is popular across Canada. The

Canadian Xterra championships were held last week in Canmore, Alta., and there are two more events in Saskatchewan. Originally, Moore and the other organizers looked at Thetis Lake, using the lesser-known mountain biking trails of upper Thetis for the cycle portion. “But we ran into quite a few environmental roadblocks,” Moore said. “There are some commonly used cycling trails at upper Thetis but there was also some sensitivity about using the area for a race.” The Mount Work/Hartland mountain biking trails are the most used in the area and already host Island Cup mountain biking races. The question was where to swim, and despite its smaller size, Durrance is big enough. “Xterra Canada races are usually under 200 competitors so the main beach of Durrance will work as the transition area (from swim to bike).” The second Sunday of September is not set in stone as an annual race date for Xterra Victoria, but because approval for the race only came through in June, and because the triathlon calendar in Victoria and southern B.C. is also pretty full, there was little choice. “The weather is holding out, hopefully, and the temperature is still great, so the race might stay in September for next year,” Moore said.

In his B.C. Hockey League coaching career Bill Bestwick has experienced teams with high turnover. But this year’s Victoria Grizzlies resemble that of an expansion team, not one that was within a win of the Coastal conference finals in 2011. The new-look Grizzlies split the first two games at the BCHL showcase in Chilliwack last weekend, a 1-0 loss to the Coquitlam Express and a 5-4 overtime win against the Port Alberni Bulldogs. Tonight (Sept. 14) is the Grizz home-opener against the Powell River Kings. “For a team of 17 new players, I thought they acquitted themselves well (in Chilliwack),” Bestwick said. “The Coquitlam game could have been 3-3, and it could have gone either way, both goalies were great.” Coquitlam’s Cole Huggins stopped all 40 shots he faced for the shutout. Victoria’s Brady Rouleau saved 26 of 27 shots.

Rouleau, 19, won 12 games with the Cowichan Valley Capitals last year and was unlucky to be pinned with the team’s first loss on Friday. The Grizzlies’ other netminder, Michael Stiliadis, an 18-year-old import from Ontario, earned the win over Port Alberni on Saturday despite letting in four goals. “You’re not going to see many shutouts in this league,” Bestwick said. “That said, from what I saw at the showcase, there is some extremely good goaltending in the BCHL this year.” Bestwick only took over as the Grizz head coach and general manager in late June, which, by junior A hockey standards, is considered too late. Regardless, he and assistant coach-GM Craig Didmon got as busy as they could in the trading and recruiting department. “I’ve never started with a team in July,” Bestwick said. “But the expectations aren’t any less. If anything, it’s a chance to shape this group of players into our philosophy.” The Grizz host the Powell River Kings tonight, 7:15 p.m. at Bear Mountain Arena. Tomorrow the Grizzlies visit the Capitals in Duncan. sports@vicnews.com

New police watchdog ready to go Tom Fletcher Black Press

B.C.’s new police oversight office is officially in operation, ready to take over investigations of incidents involving police that result in serious injury or death. Former U.S. prosecutor Richard Rosenthal was hired last year for the new office, after establishing similar services in Denver and Portland. Rosenthal said he has hired 30 of 36 investigators, divided into four teams, who are now on call to oversee investigation of any major incident involving police in the province. About half of those investigators are former police, none of whom previously worked in B.C. Rosenthal and Justice Minister Shirley Bond said police experience is required, because the teams will need to secure crime scenes, interview police and other witnesses, and investigate incidents involving offduty police officers, including homicides. B.C.’s Independent Investigations Office (IIO) is the fourth of

Black Press files

Richard Rosenthal its kind in Canada, and has the largest civilian presence of any in the world, Rosenthal said. The B.C. government committed to a civilian-led agency after a string of incidents involving RCMP and city police forces. The office was recommended by inquiries into the 2007 death of Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski at Vancouver airport, and Frank Paul, who was removed from the Vancouver Police drunk tank in 1998 and left unconscious in an alley. The 2005 gunshot death of Ian Bush at the RCMP detachment in Houston, B.C. was another

case that pushed the B.C. government to end the practice of police incidents being investigated by other police forces. The independent office will also bring B.C. RCMP officers under civilian oversight. Bond said B.C. police agencies asked for independent oversight after police-led investigations in the Paul and Dziekanski cases eroded public support. Rosenthal said he intends to make reports public, whether or not the IIO recommends charges against police officers. Final decisions on charges are made by a Crown prosecutor, as with any other B.C. criminal case. The IIO expects to deal with about 100 cases involving death or serious injury in an average year. The office has a budget of about $10 million a year, working out of headquarters in Surrey. The existing B.C. Police Complaints Commissioner is continuing to handle public complaints against police forces in the province. editor@vicnews.com

FOR THE LOVE OF

CYCLING

Nanaimo Mountie finds a new passion as he trains for this year’s Tour de Rock Chris Bush Black Press

C

onst. Chris Fernandes has a new love in his life – cycling. Fernandes is representing the Nanaimo RCMP on the Canadian Cancer Society Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock 2012 team. At 59, he is also one of the oldest riders to tackle the Tour, but he’s motivated by his quest for a new athletic challenge and the fact that his two-year-old granddaughter was diagnosed with leukemia in September. Raising money to fight childhood cancer seemed like something he could do to fight back. “You get this feeling of helplessness, where you’d like to help, but there’s nothing you can do. In my case, there is something I can do,” Fernandes said. Fernandes retired from the RCMP after 36 “I like to years of service – 30 of them in Nanaimo – challenge myself. serving as a general duty officer and in several I’m not afraid to other positions. When he retired in 2009, he immediately breathe hard.” signed up as a reserve constable and still shows – Chris Fernandes up for work each day. Fernandes has always been athletic and taken on sports that were sure to test his ability and endurance. He is a member of Nanaimo Search and Rescue and was one of the original members of the B.C. RCMP dive team, now known as the RCMP Dive Recovery Team. For Fernandes it’s no big deal to hike to the top of Mount Benson in Nanaimo or hop on a bike and put 50 kilometres under his tires. “I like challenging myself,” Fernandes said. “I’m not afraid to breathe hard. The way I see it is if I stay in shape well enough and I see something and I want to try it, I can still do it.” His newfound love for cycling came as a surprise to him, but it was evident at the end of the first 20-kilometre training ride in March when the trainees returned to the Parksville RCMP detachment and Fernandes opted to cycle back to his home in Nanaimo instead of catching a lift back to town. “Other than riding to work, I hadn’t done a lot of biking,”

Chris Bush/Black Press

Chris Fernandes sets sights on the Canadian Cancer Society Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock trek, which begins in Port Alice on Sept. 23. Fernandes said. “This has been kind of a bonus because I’ve actually found another sport that I really enjoy doing.” But even someone in Fernandes’s physical condition is tested by Tour de Rock training, especially on “speed nights” when riders train to produce high bursts of speed over a 36-kilometer course, much of it uphill, to build stamina and lung capacity. Fernandes previously fundraised before for Vision Quest and for Nanaimo Search and Rescue and hopes to raise at least $10,000 during this year’s Tour de Rock for pediatric cancer research. “As much as I can,” he said.

The Holy Grail of classic car ownership is the thrill of connecting the present to the past. And the top of the mountain for collectors is finding the original owner of a car that is ALYN EDWARDS decades old. This is CLASSIC often not possible. RIDES For retired banker Stephen Way of Kamloops, finding the history of the well-preserved, right-hand-drive, 1970 Jaguar Series II Fixed Head Coupe became a cause. The classic Jaguar retained its unusual Webasto sun roof and original driver’s handbook, early British dealer service records and all tools intact, except the tire gauge. Way started with a trace of the original factory records through the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust, a not-forprofit historic reference operating from the original Browns Lane factory. The car had been factory ordered by W.M. Wainwright of Woodville, South Australia and left the factory with a coveted Coventry-issued number plate VVC27 for delivery to Henlys, London. But Henlys had gone out of business

Hyundai launches Hockey Helpers Hyundai Canada and Hyundai Dealers are teaming up with KidSport Canada, Montreal Canadiens defenceman P.K. Subban and his family to help under-resourced youth get in the game.

SG POWER

METROLAND MEDIA WHEELSTALK.COM

Hyundai Canada has announced the launch of Hyundai Hockey Helpers, a new initiative designed to reinvest in communities across the country and improve the lives of deserving children by helping at least 1,000 under-resourced Canadian youth play hockey. In partnership with KidSport Canada, a not-for-profit organization that provides financial assistance to kids ages 18 and younger, the program provides grants for registration fees and equipment costs in order to lower the financial barriers that prevent youth from participating in organized sports. To help raise awareness of the program across the country, Hyundai Hockey Helpers is teaming up with program ambassadors who hold a personal connection to the cause. The Subban family, led by Karl Subban, father of Montreal Canadiens star P.K. Subban, and recent first-round Boston Bruins draft pick, Malcolm Subban, are giving back to the next generation of the nation’s hockey players by helping kids get in the game. Unfortunately, many Canadian youth don’t have the chance. In fact, professional players like P.K. and Malcolm Subban struggled to play organized hockey growing up due to the high cost of registration and equipment fees. Karl worked multiple jobs and spent his nights taking his sons to practice their hockey skills at a public arena in downtown Toronto.

Ford will equip its next generation European Mondeo with a 1.0-litre fourcylinder engine.

The Subaru BRZ has been named a Top Safety Pick by the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

New Subaru BRZ earns top safety award from IIHS METROLAND MEDIA WHEELSTALK.COM

Subaru Canada, Inc. has announced the brand new 2013 Subaru BRZ has earned the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s (IIHS) top award for good performance in its moderate overlap frontal, side, rollover and rear impact evaluations. This distinction has helped Subaru pick up six awards in total, enabling the automaker to become the only one earning a 2012 Top Safety Pick for every model it builds. “We are thrilled that our new rearwheel-drive sports coupe, the 2013 Subaru BRZ, is among the four new 2013 models to earn the Institute’s top award,� said Shiro Ohta, president and CEO of Subaru Canada, Inc. Top Safety Pick recognizes vehicles that, in IIHS testing, do the best job of protecting people in front, side, rear and now rollover crashes based on ‘good’ ratings in each category. The IIHS ranks in terms of Good, Acceptable, Marginal and Poor, with ‘good’ as the top rank possible in Institute tests. Winners also must have electronic stability control.

One of the highlights on the Audi stand at the Paris Motor Show will be the new RS 5 Cabriolet.

Sky is the limit for new Audi RS 5 Cabriolet METROLAND MEDIA WHEELSTALK.COM

Audi will reveal the new 445 hp RS 5 Cabriolet at the coming Paris Motor Show. With the 4.2-litre V8 shared with the RS 4 Avant, the lightweight ‘acoustic hood’ convertible top of the RS 5 Cabriolet opens and closes fully automatically in 15 seconds and 17 seconds respectively – even when driving at speeds of up to 50 km/h. When open, it hardly affects the size of the spacious luggage compartment – it only requires 60 litres of its 380-litre total volume. The split rear seatbacks can be folded down individually, and a through-load facility from the boot to the rear seating area maximizes versatility. Special reinforcements contribute to the convertible body’s high rigidity, and

aluminum front fenders compensate for some of the added weight of the reinforcements. Cabriolet-specific standard features include automatic front seatbelt feeders, a wind deflector, the lighting package including LED interior lights and a rollover protection system incorporating aluminum plates which deploy upwards behind the rear head restraints. Key options include three-stage head-level heating and front seat heating for top-down comfort on slightly cooler days. As in the Coupe, the high revving, naturally aspirated 4.2-litre V8 that is hand built for the RS 5 accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 4.9 seconds. In some countries where it is allowed, the electronically limited 155 mph top speed can be elevated to 174 mph (at extra cost) if desired.

The U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has given the 2013 Scion FR-S a “Top Safety Pick” rating, giving Toyota the most in the auto industry.

TOYOTA

The 2013 Scion FR-S rear-wheeldrive sporty car has earned the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s “Top Safety Pick” rating, bringing the company’s total of IIHS Top Safety Picks awards to 18, the most of any manufacturer in the industry. FR-S comes standard with six airbags, including dual-stage advanced driverand front-passenger airbags, frontseat-mounted airbags and side-curtain airbags. Like all Scions, the FR-S features the Star Safety System that includes Traction Control, Electronic Brake-force Distribution, Vehicle Stability Control, Brake Assist, an Anti-lock Braking

System and Smart Stop Technology. The 18 Toyota, Lexus and Scion models named Top Safety Picks this year are the Toyota Avalon, Camry, Corolla, Highlander, Prius, Prius c, Prius v, Sienna, Tundra (crew cab), Venza and Yaris (4-door hatchback); Scion tC, xB, xD, and FRS; and Lexus CT 200h, GS and RX. In its effort to determine crashworthiness – how well a vehicle protects its occupants in a crash – the Institute rates vehicles good, acceptable, marginal or poor based on performance in highspeed front and side crash tests, a rollover test, plus evaluations of seat/ head restraints for protection against neck injuries in rear impacts. Top Safety Picks must have good ratings in all four tests.

The all-new Volkswagen Golf was recently unveiled in Berlin, 36 years after the original model redefined the small family car. The seventh generation Golf builds on the success of its predecessors, of which more than 29 million have been sold, bringing new levels of comfort, practicality, safety and efficiency to the class. Despite offering more room for passengers and more advanced technological features than ever before, new production techniques contribute to the Mk VII Golf being up to 100 kg lighter than the car it replaces, helping to make it up to 23-per-cent-more efficient than before. On top of this, the new Golf is also safer than ever, thanks not just to a stronger body structure (which is also 23 kg lighter) but also to a raft of standard and optional passive and active safety systems. The new Golf is built on the so-called MQB (Modularer Querbaukasten) platform or Modular Transverse Matrix. This standardizes many vehicle component parameters across brands and vehicle classes, and allows access to new powertrains and technologies, including innovations in the areas of safety and infotainment, which until now were reserved for vehicles in higher segments. Though the new car’s dimensions are larger, its overall design is unmistakably that of a Golf, thanks to a design DNA that has evolved through the decades. Inside the Golf there is more room than ever. Rear legroom is improved by 15 mm, and the front seats have been moved 20 mm further back, benefitting taller drivers. Front shoulder room is improved by 31 mm to 1,420 mm (at the rear it is 30 mm wider) and elbowroom by 22 mm to 1,469 mm (20 mm wider at the rear).

LOOK MA, NO HANDS! Expert members of IEEE identify driverless cars as most viable form of intelligent transportation, dominating the roadway by 2040 and sparking dramatic changes in vehicular travel. METROLAND MEDIA WHEELSTALK.COM

Members of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers have selected autonomous vehicles as the most promising form of intelligent transportation, anticipating they will account for up to 75 per cent of cars on the road by the year 2040. The IEEE is the world’s largest professional organization dedicated to advancing technology for humanity. The increased use of driverless cars will be the catalyst for transforming vehicular travel over the next 28 years, sparking dramatic changes in intersections, traffic flows, highways and even drivers’ licenses.

Driverless cars operate through use of sophisticated, communicating sensors to ensure safe and efficient travel. Through vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication there may be no need for traffic lights and stop signs when all of the cars on the road are driverless. Intersections will be equipped with sensors, cameras and radars that can monitor and control traffic flow to help eliminate driver collisions and promote a more efficient flow of traffic. The cars will be operating automatically, thereby eliminating the need for traffic lights. Highway travel would also change significantly with more autonomous vehicles on the road. Both autonomous and traditional vehicles would have their own designated lanes, which would help

minimize traffic jams, increase efficiency and allow for faster speeds. “Autonomous vehicles will also make car sharing programs more prevalent. Autonomous vehicles will arrive, take you to your destination and then be ready for the next user. Since cars today are parked for more than 90 per cent of their lifetime, shared car services will promote more continuous movement, garner more efficient operation and use less gas. Driverless vehicle sharing programs will also enable people of all ages and abilities to utilize these vehicles, thereby eliminating the need for having a driver’s license. Despite all of the benefits, driver and passenger acceptance are considered the largest barriers to widespread adoption of driverless cars.

One of the youngest car companies in Canada, Mitsubishi Motor Sales, recently reached 10 years of marketing vehicles and satisfying Canadian consumers. The milestone is bolstered by the 157,607 customers who have purchased Mitsubishi cars, sport utilities and crossovers since 2002 throughout Canada. To help celebrate 10 years in Canada, MMSCAN will introduce a 10th Anniversary Edition Lancer, with a starting price of $19,998.

The new 2013 Lancer model offers a superb value proposition, loaded with standard equipment such as rear spoiler, sunroof, new alloy wheels, fog lamps and other extras. While early nameplates Galant, Eclipse, Eclipse Spyder and Endeavor have been phased out, Mitsubishi Canada has evolved to a more diverse line-up that today competes in three key (and one emerging) automotive segments with these distinct product lines: Lancer, RVR/Outlander and i-MiEV.
